JEFF DAVIS is again ID print; this time in behalf of General Lee whom he purposes to defend against the some what unfrisndly criticisms of the English general, Wolsley. The shortcomings of Lee are not by Woolsley, chsrgsble upon the general himself. but upon the politicians at Richmond who hsmpered him with politicians policy. OD this charge the 90 called defense of Lee is more of a defense of Jefferson Davis and his colleagues, than it is of the soldiers in the iron. who, judgement or no judgment, were obliged 10 obey their behes.s. With the same policy the north was similarly afflicted.

In his vigorous protest in their behalf, to the secretary of the Indians Friends Society, which We publish elsewhere, he protests m the name of our people, against the return of the cutthrost devils among us. If this Indians Friends Society would quit their pulling over the untutored red brutes and give some heed Co the cries of distress Of their own blood aLd kin, the world would better appreciate their efforts, As 8 rule. these Indian friends" are pack of bummers who live on the contributions of the gullible.

THERE is now but little doub. about the proposed samplisg works being erected here at an early day. On proof by practical demonstration that thIs Is 6 success, smelters will be built and in operation in less time than it usually takes to get such things under way. If We can by means of ssmpling works, prove to those most interested that an abundance of ore can be obtained from the mountains contiguous to Tucson. by all means let us have the sampler. The outlay will be small and the results bid fair to be of grand proportions.

Doe. the Mind T,cr ~leeps

It k Conteuded by many that it is only possible Co dream when in a restless or disturbed state of mind; that when in Aound sleep the mind k dormant and wholly inactive; but while no direct pr )of can be brought Co bear upon this point there is an accumulation of Circum- stantial evidence which would lead tO different conclusion. Though it be true Ihat in restless. half sleep and halt awake state. we gre enabled tO recall our dreams with more or less clearuess, 1t only goes tO show that we are then en- abled to make use Of faculties sufficiently alert tO fix in memory the imaginative adventures of the night, but none. even the wisest. are able Co demonstrate that the mind ever sleeps. although it may temporarily relinquish its hold upon the human mechanism by means whereof it is won't tO express itself in manner in dependently of it.
 Such would seem tO be the case in the very many well attested instances of doubles or what the Germans call ''dCppelcauCers,n n wherein the intangible resemblance of one still on this side of life, has been known tO present itself in most iuCNplicable manner, tO some near and dear relative or friend. and been seen and recognized and Conversed with. when in fact, the individual thus personifled, was known tO be not only fast asleep at the time, bat also many miles distant.- Hall Journal of Health.

HoS. Tos WEEDKN, late proprietor of She Florence Enterprise, has laid down the quill. Re began business under high pressure, paid up cash capital of five dollars. For three years he worked seventeen hours day and st the end of six years he has sold his journal for for S30O0. Truly there are no vast for tunes in Arizona journalism. Three thousand dollars for six years of upre- nitting mental and physical labor is hardly a compenssting fortune. It must st the same time, be borne in mind that Tom Weeden is ss good a newspaper man as can be found in the Territory, and the Enterprise ss a week ly paper, ranked second to none. But such IS journalism in the great south west.

VIRGINIA CITY is divided against itself. A woman by name of Jenny Woodwork died under suspicious cir cumstsnces. The coroners jury impsn- neled in tbe case, divided up and re- turned two verdicts. One gave pneu. monis ss the cause of death, the other charged her death on Kitchens, the man with whom she had been hving The second half of the jury seem m a fair way to carry their side of the case, as Kitchens is to be examined on the charge of murder.

WE publish elsewhere a letter from Commissioner Sparks to the Land office at Tucson, reopening for settlement all but square leagues of the SO called San Rafael de la Zsnis land grant. The withdrawal of this land from the public domain was an error at the expense of Pima County. Now however, as 1t has again been opened all available lands will be taken up and the assessable property of the country proportionalIy increased. Sparks evidently is not SO big 6 fool as he looks.

LOCAL OPTION VS.. PROHIBITION.

Local Option means, that each
community shall decide for itself
whether to have barrooms. Prohi-
bition means, that one county shall
meddle with and dictate the local
affairs of another county.
Are the counties which voted
against license, willing that other
counties should compel them to open
barrooms? If not, why not? Is it
not. because, these counties think
that they are able to manage their
own domestic and local affairs for
themselves? Does not 4 community
resent outside interference, precisely
as the individual resents interference
with his private business? The at
tempt by one community to coerce
another community excltes a spirit
of resistance, and general spirit of
resistance is fatal to the execution
of any law. A man submits more
readily to advice from neighbor
than from stranger; and if by a
concert of action between neighbors
and friends it be decided to do with
out barrooms, then there is no resis-

SAMPLE PRESS COMMENTS ON

The event shows that in some
parts of the country the G. A. has

therefore know NO difference between
partizanship and patriotism. q We
may be sure the Posts that attempted
to insult the President were not com
posed Of real soldiers but of small
politicians who joined the organiza
ton for political purposes. An ex-

charges are false and made for the
sole purpose of creating a vacancy
so that another person might receive
the salary; in other words, although
the BoaEd of Directors, who are bet
ter acquainted with the facts than
any outsider can possibly be, are
convinced that to continue the pres
ent managementis best for the insti-
tuition, vet they should make Il
change. In other words, the Board
of Directors should sacrifice the vel
fare of the intuition because politi-
clans and place hunters mannfac-
tured false clamor. Really such
proposition is too absurd to deserve
notice. The charges against DIR.
Bland being false, "the general iudg
ment" is that he should not be re-
moved and the Board of Directors
acted very wisely to disregard the
senseless CHATTER of newspapers.
Be it understood we are very far
from intimating that DR.. Mcdonald
should not be appointed if Blard re-
signs. DIR. Mcdonald did not seek
the place and being recommended by
the State Board of Health his APP
pointmcnt would be eminently prop
er. There is suspicion however
however that some of those voting
for Mcdonald did so because they
knew that majority opposed the
removal of Bland. There is a sus-
picion that some of these gentlemen
will not vote for Mcdonald should
the time come when their votes can
elect him.
The Board acted very wisely to
appoint Doctress Harriet b. Jones
of Wheeling, formerly of Preston,
first assistant in the female depart
ment. She is educated in her pro-
fession and has had large experience.
1t was also very judicious for the
Board to allow the physicians of the
Asylum and annual vacation for the
purpose of visiting similar institu-
tions in other States.
The circumstance the Board pays
no attention to newspaper clamor,
commends it to public approval.

The Baltimore Sun of the 9th
has a long article written evidently
by person of the Gorman-Rasin
school in Maryland politics. We
copy one sentence to be contrasted
with the letter of Il. S." on the
on the first page.
The fact is that, although MARYLAND is
pointed ont as an example of the spoils,
system, the people are very cheerful and
contented under their political yoke and
indeed. there is 4 strong feeling to the
effect that other communities would do
we'll to get some bosses of the Maryland
stamp, and initiate some of the little old
fashioned State political methods.
The machine politicians favor the
German Rasin methods. the body
of the people.are against them. The
letter of 81. S" expresses the popu-
lar judgment.

Nix JNo. X. CowEN is q manly
man of the very first order of intel
lect. Although attorney for the b.
d O., he has for years past been
acting with "the clean Democrats
in Maryland to rid that State of
machine politics. He rebelled
against corrupt methods, and finally
announced that he would support
the Republican candidates in the
coming election. Thereupon the
Baltimore Sun and other papers,
now acting in concert with the Cor
man Ring, asserted that Cowen
joined the Republicans because they
promised to prevent repeal of the
legislation that eXempts the b. d y.
from taxation. Mr.. Cowen prints
to-day. in the advertising columns
of the Sun, letter that is an epoch
in politics and makes new issue:
and an issue that staggers machine
politicians. He shows conclusively
that the B. & 0. management en-
deavored to control his conduct as a
citizen and to influence his vote as
it has been accustomed to govern
the ballots of its other employees.
Cowcn makes this very clear, and
calls on all men sin corporate en-
ploy" to stand by him ''in this bat
tie for free speech, for free thought,
for political independence" He
says, a corporation is entitled to
faithful service, but must not at
tempt to dictate the ballots of its
employees.
We intend to publish extracts
from this remarkably able and pa
triotic letter so that it's sentiments
will be known in this State. We
cannot endorse Mr.. Governs ALI.
ance with the republicans because
although their present candidates
are a vast Improvement on those gen
orally nominated. yet on National
questions they are radically wrong
and we doubt the expediency of di
viding the democracy in State cleo
tons with an expectation Of uniting
it in the National campaign. II
seems to US, the element represented
by Cowen should have reused the
people previous to the nominations
publications like that he now makes

WILSON'S ANSWER.

II am asked by some one, at my
side, whether the Confederates were
traitors. In reply, / have only this
to say: The man who would ask
such u question, on such an occasion,
and at this hour-more than twenty
years since the close of the war, and
the acceptance of its results, in good
faith, throughout the land, is utter
ly lacking in a proper appreciation
of American citizenship and the dig
nifty Of American manhood. He is
the man who uldkeep sectionalism
alive and fatten upon sectional hate.
The day is pas: for anything Of that
kind to succeed. This country is
again grandly united Let it so re-
main forever"

The FARMERS ASSOCIATION OF Vir-

before the Roanoke convention, con-
sidered a proposition that all farm

politicians had heretofore prevented.

X. G. Field, of Orange, spoke earn
estly for the proposition. We pre-

lobby are carefully excluding men
